The Closing Date for the 2018 Arts Festivals and Events Scheme is 4pm Wednesday 28th February.
THE ARTS FESTIVALS AND EVENTS SUPPORT SCHEME is open to organisations that develop and present arts events that maintain the highest standards of programming and presentation for audiences in Leitrim. In accordance with the Arts Act 2003, applicants should emphasise how their proposals a) stimulate interest in the arts, b) promote the knowledge, appreciation and practice of the arts or c) assist in improving standards in the arts. Applicants will be assessed on the quality and ambition of the proposed activities and the feasibility and the completeness of applications in terms of budget and personnel, and project management capacity. Given the limitations of current resources, it will not be possible to fund all applicants and available funding will be allocated to those applications which best meet the programme criteria.
For further information please email ckelly@leitrimcoco.ie, or telephone 071 96 21694.
Once the festival/event is over, successful applicants should download the drawdown form below, complete it and return it to the Arts Office alongwith the required supporting documentation.
All successful appliants should include the Leitrim County Council Arts Funding Logo in all publicity. A copy of the logo can be downloaded below.
